What we were talking about in this subthread was about a depency on clang, not LLVM. And that's just needed at buildtime, to generate the bitcode files (including synchronizing types / function signatures). For the yum.pg.o, which already depends on EPEL, there's a new enough LLVM version. There's a new enough version in RHEL proper, but it appears to only be there for mesa (llvm-private). > You're not proposing that we'd embed all of LLVM into a Postgres > package are you? No. Greetings, Andres Freund
